When Her Own Payment Came Due

When Her Own Payment Came Due Came torturing moment that she just knew he could never be her eternal love No old age, everlasting for the two their love would die, no reprieve from above Yet his touch scorched her into frenzy days were spent fighting loss's sad arrival His kiss sent her world into a tizzy afterwards she'd fight for her survival Finding Fate hard, seeing future regrets nights now spent enjoying lover's touch Present time was just as good as it gets for burning love seared her far, far too much Dawn broke, came that sad moment she just knew Years flown by, now her own payment came due R.J.
